At the same effect as a tree? I'm not a scientist, but I can't imagine an acre of crops having the same effect as an acre of trees. Also, crops are only around for however many months they take to produce their product, then they are harvested, and the ground is tilled under again leaving the land with scratched earth. Trees in a forest keep doing their thing year round.

I'm also ignoring any of the chemicals that farms use on the land, but it is something to also consider.
They also bought-back several hundred million shares. Most tech companies are slowly diluting share holders with their quarterly RSUs, while Apple is continually shrinking their overall outstanding share count.

The main question is, do you believe they can keep it up, and I for one do. Their eco-system gets stronger every year.
What a joke! This is just beyond parody at this point. Florida can kiss goodbye any dream of being the next SV if they don’t take climate change seriously. Soon they can be the next atlanatis.
There's a reason off-shore firms (Indian firms, specifically) have such a reputation for absolutely horrendous, garbage work product.
Yeah, that's a good point about power.

You could probably go further and tie some of that discomfort into competition for mates. If my neighbor had more than me, I might start to worry that he will outcompete me in the market for a mate. I'm not sure this matters as much today - but one can imagine it did for most of human history when communities were much smaller and the majority of men died without leaving offspring behind.

It's an interesting idea, I don't know if there is something to it or not. It's hard to discuss anything involving gender roles these days.
This wasn’t always true years ago when decisions about building these factories were made. Tesla has had a cash crunch more than once in its history.
That or a nearby government decides it doesn't want some new nation that might cause them trouble nearby so they invade. It's happened at least once when the newly formed Republic of Minerva was invaded by Tonga. Without a military of their own, Minerva had no way of preventing even a small nation like Tonga from taking over.
Did my best to make sure you could say if it's sarcasm or not.
"Melvin and Citadel can BUY GME themselves to mitigate the risk."

Melvin buying GME is not "mitigating," it's closing the short position. If you close your short position high, you got screwed and you lost money. They did close it recently... At a massive loss.

"I firmly believe that the hedge funds that held GME short positions have bought into GME to mitigate their exposure. They likely bought in algorithmically using robinhood data and are making money off of retail right now."

How... Would "making money off of retail" in a pernicious sense be possible right now? If a retail trader on WSB bought in at $20, and sold at $200, they got 1000% ROI on their trades. Do you think that a bank secretly snuck in greater than 1000% ROI? The WSB trader got 1000% ROI, but the bank got 2000% ROI on the set of trades? The stock would have to be trading at $600 and the bank secretly pocketed $400 for that to happen.

Sure, the HFT front-run orders. But they are constantly buying and selling the shares they trade, they're not just buying. They don't get the buy-and-hold wins that the slow retail traders got off of a rally like this. HFT make money by providing liquidity, not by buying and holding GME.

Also, just as a technicality, Melvin is not a high frequency trader. They are not the same people front-running Robinhood orders. Melvin lost big time.

"My message to the people here: ... you are still losing"

My message to the people here: if you got >1000% ROI, you won. Don't let randos on HN make you feel bad.

(Close your position though.)
Depends on the drug, but their metabolism isnt identical to ours, and humans can often require significantly higher doses compared to other animals when controlling for dosage per weight unit. But again it depends and there is no hard and fast rule as far as I’m aware.
...not least because you have that lump inside your head that does a fair bit of processing on what your eye reports to your brain and constructs something we think of as seeing but isn't actually what is sensed by the eye.
Its not simply better. Going HTML only means killing features and conveniences that users want for a benefit they mostly won't see. Its perfectly possible to make web apps run very fast.
I've held that point of view, but heard something recently that gave me pause: The high tax rates of the 1960's were the reason that companies paid their employees more and/or invested in research, producing things like Bell Labs.

The reasoning was that when corporate tax rates are low companies will use the extra money to play financial games, and when corporate tax rates are high companies know they are better of off giving the money to retain/recruit good employees or spending it on research to grow the business instead.
It's way more complicated than that: there are differences in metabolism as well as size. It varies from drug to drug too, but as a rule of thumb dog needs about twice the human dose (in mg/kg). A 60 lb dog therefore needs about the same as a smallish adult.

Here's some FDA guidance on how to translate doses from animals to humans: https://www.fda.gov/media/72309/download
I know people like harking on about phone number or email requirements, but how am I supposed to find my friends? Do I have to send them a message over Signal to tell them the name I picked on another app?

I'm sure you could. In 1985-ish.

How much of the required hardware still exists? How much of the required software can you find? Is that software (or another version of it) also compatible with your modern computer? etc.

It would be much cheaper just to pay some kids to make nice looking but ultimately loss making bets on there. If WSB looks like a place where people go to lose money then it's popularity will drop.
You don't - If you do that you are double counting the cost of the engineers (If they were working on something else, you wouldn't account their salary against this optimisation).

I have a feeling the Siberian Times updated the headline. Normally I spot when the HN title differs from the headline of a news article, and i think I’d be especially observant with this unfamiliar "zombie fire" phrase. But I didn't notice anything amiss when I opened this one up originally.
As someone who's not a front-end developer, but who works near them and sees the (React) code they produce and their general productivity (or lack thereof), what's so bad about it?

To me as a backend developer just reading Ember's docs, it seems like Ember provides most of the conveniences I take for granted in a backend web framework such as Django, Rails or Laravel.

On the other hand, the front-end code I see from the people I work with seems to have no standard for structure (every project has its own), reinvents the wheel all the time (using Axios and building the URLs manually with string concatenation for example), etc. Most of the stuff they do (and redo) from scratch seems like something that would be handled by Ember to begin with.

So what's so bad? I feel like (as an outsider - feel free to prove me wrong) Ember is fine for most purposes, and edge-cases where React or alternative approaches do provide a benefit can be used ad-hoc without having to use it for your entire application.
Curious If You Have Any Idea, at All, Who These 31 Historical Figures Are
You would've made the same comparison between Apple and Nokia back in 2008. If you've ever driven a Tesla, you'll realize that it is a paradigm shift just like the iPhone was back in 2008 relative to Nokia.
And these days no one would have the slightest clue how to use it if they could even find it.
> At some point somebody will be left holding the bag

The same applies to Bitcoin, though, for the past 10 years. Someone's holding the bag at $30K as we speak...

Gamestop can (theoretically) go the same way.
That makes sense if all engineers are fungable, and you are never limited by engineering capacity.
Gosh, sheeple, valuing battery life and speed above all else.

When will these people listen to Stallman?! It is CRITICAL TO EVERYONE that we be able to compile Hurd from scratch.
You're actually correct. Against modern air defenses the A-10 would have a very difficult if not impossible mission.

Luckily we don't fight wars against superpowers and if we do the A-10 won't be the first one in.

And as cool as that gun is- it's overrated. Pilots shouldn't have to free-gun. Most of the footage of these guns show them missing a lot.
If you want to get degree for these purposes I recommend western governors university. It is a major US university run by the government.

Nothing against university of the people, but I don’t know how accepted it is.
At least on the mac I do not use the german layout at all. For typing an Umlaut I type instead Opt(Alt) + 'u' to get an ¨-sign, then I type a/o/u to get the letter. The same with ß - just Opt + 's'.

It is maybe a bit annyoing if I have to type in german a lot on some days, but it is less annoying then to keep an extra layout. And since I sometimes have to type in french and often in russian... well, you get the idea, it would be a mess of 4 keyboard layouts. With special characters I can push the amount of keyboard layouts just to colemak and russian.
This is hilariously bizarre from a non-US perspective, but your country is so primitive in this area that a "Mark Cuban" branded solution is probably the most viable path out of the mess.
I think they can keep it up - their services revenue growth has been pretty spectacular over the last few quarters, and with more people at home due to COVID their new Apple Fitness thing is going to take off.
In contrast, splitting the day helps to pivot more easily. I've had situations where I thought I wanted to work on a certain feature but when I talked about it, people didn't want that feature. So if I spent a week implementing it, it would have been a waste of my time.
Last time looked at the costs of imaging I got the impression that there are a monopoly and other captive market effects at work.

You'll hear medical professionals claim imaging is expensive because the machines are expensive. Which just says to me that medical professionals aren't accountants.

Consider a dental w-ray machine. $15-30k. That's the cost of Prius used as a Taxi. You don't pay a couple dollars for a 15 minute Taxi cab ride.

An MRI machine, I forget how much those cost. But whatever, lets compare one with a modern passenger airliner. Cost is about equivalent on a 'per passenger' basis. And an airliner requires highly trained professionals to keep it running.
There were a lot of people waiting for the refresh for one-two years now... they are going to be production limited for a long time on the new S and X.
Are you sure it's not 0.594% of his networth as opposed to 0.0006?
It's all complicated and up to interpretation to be honest.

Basically, doing any effort to raise stock price beyond it's "proper" price in a coordinating way is a violation. Proving it is an entire another thing. I doubt this is what happening right now. I would like to see anyone trying to prove that ":rocket::rocket::rocket: GME to 1000" counts as such.

However, liability like that is why AMC is forbidden to mention in r/WSB by its name. It's easy to pump and dump that ticket.

This is why many "Let's take over this company with small market cap" threads were removed back in a day.
Is this true? Even ignoring the emotional aspect of a newborn child dying, I'm not sure it is. 10x is 10x, and if you know that figure and opt for home birth, and something happens, you might always wonder if it was your desire for a "more comfortable experience" that ended up being the deciding factor.

I'd rather mitigate the risk as much as possible, regardless of how small it might be initially.
Ok, the title is no longer in Miami or vice versa.
Do you have an example (outside of a niche, like a site catering specifically to some disability) of the economic argument working? Because the obvious economic counter argument is that while you work on accessibility your competitors work on features for the 90+% rest of the population.

In my opinion it's why it's especially important to have regulations here, free market won't save us because in most cases the ROI just isn't there. However this is wrong to abandon those people, thus we need incentives to force people to do the right thing.

> If Cuban's idea is "we don't do insurance but you're free to pay with an HSA card or seek reimbursement from your insurance company" then this could be a huge winner.

This is the way it works for a lot of therapy and mental health services and it’s horrible. Prices are absolutely insane, practitioners are not accommodating to patient schedules, and patients have absolutely zero bargaining power.

In some ways doing it through insurance is kind of like a union. You all agree to accept certain inefficiencies, bureaucracy, etc., (and associated cost) in order for better collective bargaining terms.

Of course people with great jobs usually don’t care about unions. They don’t need the collective bargaining power and thus figure the bureaucracy cost is just a loss they don’t need.

Same thing with very healthy people and insurance. If you’re healthy you just figure, give me cheap catastrophe insurance, what do I care? But if you’re in the depths of the medical industrial complex because you need frequent treatment for chronic conditions, you quickly learn that papering everything over with lots of bureaucracy to adhere it to better collective bargaining for patients is way better, and I’d rather take the nasty, churning quagmire of price inflating insurance than deal with spartan libertarian mini-insurance that essentially just results in rich-get-richer (i.e. genetically lucky healthy people just get to save money while everyone else suffers).
The state did take ownership of entities that received direct bailouts - eg AIG, GM, Chrysler
Except the binding always implies the object is mutated on changes, which make any form of reasoning or concurrent programming difficult.
A similar situation in local political health care plans. I did medical billing. Our local govt agency (this was for medicaid level care) required that they only pay 25% of the price of the service. When 90% of your patients are on medicaid, you raise the price so that 25% of price is now what price should be.

But very funny when someone comes in and wants to pay cash. While that would be SO much easier than dealing with the agency - you got to charge them 4x so some politician and HN posters can go on about how much money the govt "saves".

I just wish prices (cash paid) had to be posted publicly.

Django's class-based views are a perfect example of well-written OO python.

A view takes a request, gets some data, and renders a response.

Each part of the process (and its subparts) is abstracted in methods that can be overridden. This lets you implement certain things (authentication, formatting, compression, caching, logging, pagination) once in an abstract class or mixin, and add it to all your views.

Of course, Django already has those classes and mixins.

This means you can write very simple views. Just define the queryset and the template, and you're done. Everything else just works, because it's already implemented in well-tested parent classes.
There's no reason why communists couldn't make an attempt but historically micronations have been much more of a libertarian thing than a communist one. Communists seem to be much more into either changing the economic system of an entire country or founding communes within a existing country than being into making ocean platforms into a new communist nation.
Observing from the sidelines, I think by this point it's option #3: doing it for teh lulz.
Right, but their policy is that individual users can still get keys for personal use. So given that, how could individual users getting keys for personal use be a violation of their policy?
There is simply a supply shortage of GameStop stock at the moment. There are no massive hedge funds that took huge positions before the price started rocketing up. Maybe some smaller prop shops with sentiment based strats, but this is mostly retail volume, now being reigned in by market makers. Obviously the smart, patient, and principled retail traders will do better than the uninformed and emotional when all is said and done and the price stabilizes near realistic levels. That is just how markets work. They are not perfect, but allow us to asymptotically approach pricing perfection to the degree that available information is perfect, in the long term. Such phenomenons are much less volatile on larger market cap components of the economy where the big funds can aid in price discovery.

I can tell you that for myself, being homeless made keeping my job difficult for a hundred reasons. On top of that, it drove me into a deep depressive episode, which impacts my ability to work severely, and I turned to drug use in a big way, which obviously lead to my situation becoming even more difficult.

That's why it's important to find specialists when you need actual treatment, because they are treating the same thing all over all the time.
I agree with you... There is a (small) risk the stock goes to $1,000 or $5,000. My portfolio won't face any margin calls even with those numbers though... And eventually the price will come back down.

I think it was Ben Graham who said the markets can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent.
uhm, have you ever been to WSB? Loss Porn is a thing.
@andy99, @setib: we're a boutique that helps large organization in different sectors and industries with machine learning. Energy, banking, telcos, retail, transportation, etc. These organizations have different maturity levels and their functions expect different deliverables.

The organizations range on the maturity level from "We want to use AI, can you help us?" to "We have an internal machine learning and data science team that's overbooked, can you help?" to "We have an internal team, but you worked on [domain] for one of your project and we'd like your expertise".

For the expectations, you can deal with an extremely technical team that tells you: I want something that spits JSON. I'll send your service this payload and I expect this payload. So that's a tiny part.

Sometimes, you have to build everything: data acquisition, develop and train models, make a web application for their domain experts with all the bells and whistles, admin, roles, data management, etc. I wrote about some of the problems we hit here[0].

The point is that, finding these problems is an effort that requires a certain skill/process and goodwill from the clients. We worked on a variety of problems.

Or Blackberry/RIM but the same. Basically the market has priced in that while existing car manufacturers have more sales, they are essentially dying and they need to come up with a car that is competitive to the Tesla electric offerings to compete. And so far they haven't shown the ability to do that.

Just a suggestion:

I'd love a way to change the keybinds; using Dvorak means this is wholy unplayable for me (also a mech keyboard that doesn't have up-down-left-right in a traditional/usable access as you'd expect on most keybs.

What blog analytics tool do you use on your custom blog?
Dear my reader, I am curious as to what you use? I don't want to use Google Analytics and so looking around for good cheap/free Saas for analytics only where I also can download reports in CSV. My blog is not popular, I estimate hardly any viewers monthly however now that I am taking in it seriously? What is one platform you use that you just like?

Thanks for your time and consideration.

I'm reminded of the time I was in the EU, in an area where tourism isn't common. Due to a lack of planning on multiple levels, I had to stay an extra two weeks. I went to get a refill for a prescription I need.

The pharmacist was clearly unconformable with the discussion that needed to happen. They informed me there would be a charge for the medicine. After some back and forth because neither of us was fluent in the other's language, it turned out they were asking me to pay the cost of the drug, an amount of money less than my normal copay, and something like 5% of what my insurance claimed the drug normally cost.

The pharmacist was most confused why I was happy to pay. I don't think they believed me when I tried to explain how much it normally cost me.
I don’t understand your second point. Which web app works offline?? (Unless they are deliberately made for that purpose. Hell, even most electron apps refuse to work without a connection) They regularly make new requests, there is literally no difference between SSR and CSR in this regard - it seems a bit that you are arguing with a straw men. Like, what does a webshop do which is written in react/whatever and you go to the next “page”, it hadn’t loaded yet?

Also, noone would even think that it is unreasonable for a WEBapp to phone home. What people have trouble with is tracking, that is orthogonal to the current topic and should be condemned.
It's pretty incestuous though. Mortgage backed security market got started at the Salomon Brothers before fumbling it to Morgan Stanley before GS ultimately decided when to pull the rug on it all. Citadel might not be a bank but market making is one of it's core functions much like them. Names might change but I bet many of the same players move between these firms.
